I’m reaching out to share something that I’ve decided to do in November!

I’ve taken on a challenge to knit every single day in support of Dementia UK, a charity that provides life-changing care for people affected by dementia and their families.

Knitting has been a source of comfort for me, and now I’m using it to raise awareness and funds for an important cause taking part in the November Knitting Challenge to support families facing dementia.

Your donation, big or small, makes a difference.

Just £8 can cover the telephone costs for two families seeking support through Dementia UK's free Helpline.

£33 could fund a new dementia specialist Admiral Nurse to spend an hour helping a family in the community, offering practical solutions and emotional support to cope with their loved one’s behaviour.

Dementia UK is the specialist dementia nurse charity. Our nurses, called Admiral Nurses, provide life-changing care to families affected by all forms of dementia, including Alzheimers disease. They help people with dementia stay independent for longer, and support the people caring for them so they have the strength to cope with the bad days, and the energy to enjoy the good days. They have the time to listen and the knowledge to solve problems, helping families take back control when they are struggling.

Follow my progress and feel free to share any patterns or ideas on my Fundraising page!

Thank you!
